this dunearn clique has always been like a body, and you know we may be doing our own things, living our own life but at the end of the day, when we get together, we are still a body.. we still talk fun, we still gossip like hell, and things will always be the same like ever before.. perhaps it was the things we went through in band, in class, in school, or was it the trips we went for together, or may it be the simple fact that we grew through the most horrendous period of one's life (the teenage years) together.. these somethings will always be the one link that we have in common, and nothing in the future will ever diminish this link..and i've know it, i just wasn't assured. i just want to say i so totally love these people :)

as sentimental as i am, i was close to tearing when 5d was conducting the Japanese Graffiti piece..firstly, this piece was rather well played i thought.. and secondly, i cant believe HOW much we've grown! from the small boy in dunearn to the conductor now on stage, 5d's gestures have changed so much and he have like his own style of conducting already you know.. guess everybodys been turning 21 is making me feel sad that the past has now been even more past.. i felt seriously proud of him, its like seeing a part of me up on stage :) i was really really really touched.beyond words..

so while i was sitting up there listening to the band, ive realised that it really doesnt matter to me if the songs were nice, if the playing was good, or if the band was in-tuned, it is really the way it reminds me of great feelings i had.. the butterflies you feel in your stomach when the concert is about to start, the desire to say "damn!" when you miss your high note, the feeling of wanting to shout out at the climax of the song, and the proud you experience when you stand up to accept your applause at the end of the song... those feelings are so hard to forget.. and everytime i go to a concert, i remember those feelings.. NOTHING else in life by far have given me these feelings.nothing.

and this is such a heartwarming feeling which i think only the band people will know. playing in band is like being in one family, there may be quarrels, disputes, unhappiness here and there but then again, at the end of the day, you feel elated to see everyone you know, be it your old-time enemy, or the weird kid you refuse to talk to last time, i just felt so happy and blissed to see everyone's faces in the theatre just now.its like all the grudges are gone and you just talk, like you're talking to someone you know from ages ago, which is true actually..

well i think growing up is definitely a great thing, but growing with your friends is even better than great, even though not everyone is always in sight, i just feel great to see all my friends happy and moving on.. this is one of the rare days i feel so happy, and contented with whatever i have now. and so, i hope its like this everyday :)

just by knowing you're are fine, i know i got my simple joy
